So I picked up a rare java fern(crepidomanes auriculatum) and after 5 months, it now has a fernlet. It's really slow growing and I'm just glad that's it happy enough to give me a baby!! Yeah......

That is a new one for me and I am already on the hunt. LOL
I guess this Taiwanese fern is still quite rare in the hobby so it's pretty expensive. Did you get your plant from a Canadian source?

Umm, it kind of fell in my suitcase when I was in San Francisco after a shopping trip to Aquaforest. Don't tell the feds or I'm done!!!

But that would be evidence and who's going to visit me in the "big house"???

I will, but I require a cutting/plantlet as a visitation fee! I will also pay for such item, did i mention that already?

knowing how hard it would be for you to leave your shoes behind, it seems best to keep you out of the clink... for now. Here's a pic (http://www.acuariogallego.com/forosmf/index.php?topic=10540.0) or two (http://aqua.c1ub.net/forum/lite.php?topic=123284.0)
Yes, I love my shoes and bettas. Especially like the fact my CAC friends will only visit me if I bribe them with plants:nah:
